I think non-musicians can tell a cello from a violin and a tuba from a trumpet.

But can they tell a violin from a fiddle?

The difference is the bridge. Fiddle has a flatter bridge to make it easier to hit all four strings at once. Violin has a curved bridge to make it difficult to hit multiple strings at once.
